Known for it’s practically calorie free frozen treats, the Frozen Monkey on Washington Street in Hoboken is now serving light fair including breakfast. For a town with minimal options for breakfast during the week, the Frozen Monkey offers a variety from banana pancakes to granola and scrambled eggs. The food while good is very simplistic in flavor dimension. The scrambled eggs were cooked perfectly, and served with a baguette (white or wheat). The sandwiches are good for the most part; the Dijon chicken sandwich had nice flavors that complemented each other, grilled chicken, Dijon mustard, pickles, and lettuce, but was hard to keep together, and needed to be seasoned. A couple of things that were a little disturbing, water served without ice, their plating and presentation could be improved which would help with the over all appeal of the dishes. They lacked on servers which caused our food to take a while to make it to us. Believing however that this is because the prices are very reasonable, and it has a fun atmosphere for causal dining with family and friends, especially if you have young children. The decor is funky and there is outdoor seating as well. By all means check it out for yourself, because most people were leaving with smiles. Enjoy a nice book with a cup of coffee, frozen treat, or their light fare. I would suggest the morning. Overall, Frozen Monkey has a nice variety and good fare for the very affordable menu they offer. With a bit more time, their creative concepts for their menu could evolve into something great.
As always, Enjoy! ~ K
